Answer: D) pretentious.

Explanation: pretentious means something characterized by assumption of dignity or importance, especially when exaggerated or undeserved. Pretentious is the word that correctly fills in the blank, because its definition matches what it is being said about the man (that did not seem to have the experience that his boasting suggested). So the complete sentence would be: His actions were rather pretentious in that he did not seem to have the experience that his boasting suggested.

Is assertive,firmly confident ,and pushy a positive connotation a denotation or a negative connotation
JulijaS [17]

We can actually deduce here that:

  • assertive - a positive connotation.
  • firmly confident - a denotation
  • pushy - a negative connotation.

<h3>What is connotation?</h3>

Connotation is actually known to be a way of indicating the implication of a word. It shows the emotional side of a word. It it is positive or negative.

But denotation is seen as the primary meaning of a word. It is usually in contrast to the ideas that can be suggested in a word. In other words, it refers to the literal meaning of words.

Thus, we see that positive connotation refers to the word that brings about a positive feeling while negative connotation brings about negative feeling or feedback.
